Oktoberfest and both December crawls, which is three national dates. The run opens with Halloween instead, and mid-December carries nothing at all in a city this cold.
Is there no Buffalo Oktoberfest?
None is listed, which is a surprise given the city's German heritage and its brewing history. The calendar starts in October instead.
Which Buffalo district hosts the crawls?
Chippewa Street, Allentown and the Old First Ward are the candidates. Your confirmed venue list arrives with the ticket confirmation.
Why is St. Patrick's the big Buffalo date?
Because the city has deep Irish roots, particularly in the Old First Ward and the Valley, and runs two separate parades each March.
How much snow does Buffalo get?
Among the most of any American city. That makes the New Year's Eve and March dates genuinely weather-dependent, and Chippewa's density valuable.
Is Chippewa Street walkable in winter?
Yes, and that is the point. The bars pack into a short run of blocks, which keeps the exposure between doors down to a minute.
Does the Bills schedule matter?
For the autumn dates, yes. Highmark Stadium fills the region on a home Sunday, and the Saturday before already carries a visiting crowd.
Which Buffalo date runs longest?
New Year's Eve, at eight hours. Both March slots close at eight and eleven respectively, and Halloween finishes at ten or eleven.
